Book author information

[Protektor-Desura]

It would be nice if Jellyfin could pull in from Goodreads or Wikipedia information about the author and display it when you are showing all the books by a specific author along with a picture of the author.

At the moment it doesn't actually display the author anywhere, right?

[Protektor-Desura]

Correct. It doesn't. It just lists all the books by that author is all.

[hacketiwack]

If I understood properly, it is not even listing books by authors, but just by the folders that are supposed to be named after authors. And therefore, there is no way to search by author name.
Am I right or did I miss something?

I'm also not seeing any way to add, import, read, edit, or view author-related metadata, so it seems like there's some sort of bug here
